Hi folks, this is not exactly a New Age tune but I got inspired by a western tv show I just finish watching. An all RT tune. I give you

Hi Mike,

Very very pretty! I love a good waltz and this one is super! The dobro was an unexpected surprise. Great use of the background oohs & aahs. I really enjoyed this. Fiddle is so sweet!

Very nice, Mike!

Not enough waltzes these days - this is sweet & romantic.
As always very well produced & mixed.
Love that fiddle- did you alter the RT tone?

Thanks Scott, Alan and Robert for the time to listen. The fiddle no tone change, just some reverb.

A nice listen, Mike. Good mix (though the guitar strum at the end is a bit loud/rough).

This is very pretty, Mike smile The whole thing flows so nicely. For me, it evokes the imagery of rivers and moving water. The sonic textures here are outstanding. Everything fits perfectly, and it sounds gorgeously mixed.

Very well done - thanks for sharing!

Nice waltz with a great flow.

The dobro worked really well and the mix sounds very good on our monitors.

Kudos!

Hello Cubanpete, always a fan of your work. This is no exception! fantastic use of reverb on all of the instrumentation. There is a great sense of space to this. Really dig the progression too. Well done!


Cheers,
Joe
